fashion

To be honest applying for the tender was quite ad-hoc and sudden as most of the things are in my life. I was not really aware what style Marie Claire will “prefer” neither had much time as I was told about the tender only 2 weeks before the application period was closed. Even made it a bit tougher when the first photographer quit and I was left there with an idea I liked but with a slight side note: It was a photo tender for photographers, where clearly I was only an optional model. Still I cared for this project as its Mamacittá 😃 and pushed it till the end. I kind of felt the topic of the tender pretty close to me and was also sure that something interesting has to be done for this occasion.

The theme of the tender was:The colorful existence of women.

It wasn’t that easy as I had 1,5 week left, needed THE PHOTOGRAPHER:-), the make up artist, preferably a stylist too. A studio and well yes more time:-) Time I did not have! To be honest the hardest part was to find the time when everybody was able can get together, be on one specific location:-) and do the work.

I was inspired by Sandro Miller’s Malkovich photo exhibition I have previously seen in Budapest. So the idea was clear. Show the colorful existence of women through different characters that are unconventional, or popular in world press photographed with one model → Me. I needed to keep reminding myself that the project is a photographer tender, and not a topic of a new blogpost of mine. And surprisingly or not I have taken it damn serious. The approach of us towards the photographs was following my idea, so you will likely feel the touch of fashion on them. Well… Quite much of a fashion touch. The more I see the pictures the more I smile. We humans and our minds and our creativity is so unique and authentic.

Let me show you what characters were in my mind, and how did we display them on the Marie Claire magazine photo tender:-)

As 2017 slowly turns into 2018 i have had to notice that this year my new fashion trend was wearing overalls – commonly called jumpsuits. I’ve just realized that I always bring one with me to the fitting room at each store visit. Besides, it is also visible on every advertisement that pops up on my search engine that its either a Revolve, Secondskinoveralls, or a Zara jumpsuit on the ad.

This years truly newest fashion trends were the suits, the kimonos, the jumpsuits, the waist bags, the hats, and the sneakers. In fact as I’m sitting here listing for you I could just add at least 5 more items that if someone asks me i can definitely recall it was in 2017.

The variations when it comes to jumpsuits are infinite:
long sleeve, short sleeve, strapped, zipped, culottes style or skinny, loose or tight etc.

Im quite passionate when it comes to gym and fitness outfits. This is a kind of silly rule of mine lets call it the EE rule. Everything needs to match with everything. Those who train regularly 4-6 times a week knows what I’m talking about. The more time we spend in the gym the more concerned we are about our outfit we spend those hours. Specially when it comes to sweating. The more uncomfortable my body feels while sweating, soaring, stretching the more comfortable I want to feel in my pants and shirts.

We love to have two pairs of different colored shoes (some even separate the type of sport shoes e.g. for running and for indoor crossfit), not to mention the number of pants in various patterns, and lengths, sport bras, and shirts.
Of course we all have those ugly days, when we don’t wake up on time, forget the laundry in the machine and accidentally didn’t dry those what we wanted to wear the other day etc… So we just throw whatever is in the vicinity of our hands to the gym bag and leave home quickly.

But what are those criteria we choose and buy our so often wore and rotated pieces we don’t change for years?
